'SACRED AND PROFANE'

Stanford Magnificat (opus 164)
Vaughan Williams Mystical Songs
Ramirez Misa Criolla
Chilcott Singing by numbers
Lambert Rio Grande

Any bright ideas for a pic for the poster?

Is there a Titian called Sacred and Profane Love? Or a Botticelli maybe?

MrsBadger · 12/03/2007 16:44

there is a Titian, but too much nudity for the old dears in the back row I'm afraid...

I fancied using Cupid and Psyche but definitely too much nudity there.

(I see what you mean, everything I look at is just filthy)

harpsichordcarrier · 12/03/2007 17:03

I really fancy doing some LAmbert

harpsichordcarrier · 12/03/2007 17:05

engraving?

MrsBadger · 12/03/2007 17:09

I like the Burne-Jones... but is it selling the Lambert?

20s-style Art Deco cruise ship graphics? but will they sell the Stanford and the VW?...

lol at bonkers Californian concert
no I know about the Lambert
am liking the Art Deco thing, will see what I can find

How about something by Blake, if not problematic with copyright? e.g."The Ancient of Days"? Also topical what with Blake anniversary this year.

Marina · 12/03/2007 19:28

Something by Stanley Spencer maybe?

That is some concert MrsB

Marina · 12/03/2007 19:29

But obviously not the Leg of Mutton Nude

harpsichordcarrier · 12/03/2007 19:30

Blake and Spenser both stuffed FULL of nudes ime

harpsichordcarrier · 12/03/2007 19:30

for Marina's illness
what's up?

Marina · 12/03/2007 19:33

And dead people. And Patricia Preece [we need a bonkers emoticon here]
I'd rather not pollute MrsB's important piccy choosing thread with tales of my antibiotic-related woes. Let's just say I'll feel fine in the morning I should think!

Crotchety · 13/03/2007 11:16

Well I reckon calling a concert "Sacred and Profane" is positively asking for nudes!!

MrsBadger · 13/03/2007 11:28

maybe - conductor's choice...

I've done a mockup using the nakedest Cupid and Psyche I could find and it actually looks rather good - not nearly so filthy in greyscale.

Spencer is great stylistically but haven't found just the right one yet.

Crotchety · 13/03/2007 11:35

THat looks good!

MrsBadger · 30/03/2007 11:27

thanks for all the ideas
think we might have cracked it with a Cubist called Tamara de Lempicka
